Car Safety During Winter Months

The leading cause of death during winter storms is transportation-related accidents. Preparing your car for the winter and knowing how to reach if stranded or lost on the road are keys to safe winter driving.

These tips might help you to avoid a transportation-related emergency:

If you become stranded in your vehicle during a longer trip, use the supplies in your car kit and display your trouble sign. Don't leave the vehicle in severe weather, unless help is nearby. Do minor exercises in your car. Occasionally, for no more than 10 minutes at a time, run the vehicle, but make sure to crack the window open to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning.
